Coho salmon are also called Silver salmon due to their flashy coloration in their adult ocean phase. During the spawning phase, they shift to bright red flanks with bluish-green heads and backs and dark spots. Mature females tend to be darker than males, but both develop hooked jaws and teeth in the fall spawning phase. Coho return to coastal rivers from October through January.
